I have to pay extra to remove ads from Prime Video - eviltoast

I’d seen rumours online but got the email this morning.

EDIT: seems like there won’t be ads for everyone straight away.

  • Live events, such as sports, and content offered through Amazon Freevee will continue to include advertising. Customers in the Republic of Ireland, Channel Islands, and Isle of Man won’t see ads in their experience at this time.

    Thanks for the Finance context. I figured they ran numbers and decided to go ahead anyway.

    It’s sad that being public also encourages companies to act in ways that aren’t ethical as long as it maximizes shareholder value.
